Branch: pkgsrc-2022Q1, Version: 1.2, Package name: whetstone-1.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Converted by Rich Painter, Painter Engineering, Inc. based on the
www.netlib.org benchmark/whetstoned version obtained 16 March 1998.

A novel approach was used here to keep the look and feel of the
FORTRAN version. Altering the FORTRAN-based array indices,
starting at element 1, to start at element 0 for C, would require
numerous changes, including decrementing the variable indices by 1.
Instead, the array E1[] was declared 1 element larger in C. This
allows the FORTRAN index range to function without any literal or
variable indices changes. The array element E1[0] is simply never
used and does not alter the benchmark results.
